How to Connect your UpCloud bucket to SimpleBackups

1. Create your UpCloud Bucket

• Sign in your UpCloud account at https://hub.upcloud.com/

• Go to https://hub.upcloud.com/object-storage/new or navigate to "Object Storage" and click on "New Object Storage"

• Select the location for your storage (think about GDPR rules, if you're an EU company)

• Make sure to keep "Public network access" option enabled

• Name your storage

• Select "Yes, create a bucket now" and finally give your bucket a name

Good job, your UpCloud bucket is created!

Information you'll need in step 2:

• Your Bucket name, in this example "bucket-sbio"

• Your Bucket region, in this example "nl-ams1"

• Your Bucket endpoint, in this example "my-sbio-storage.nl-ams1.upcloudobjects.com"

• Your Bucket access key

• Your Bucket secret key

2. Connect your UpCloud bucket to SimpleBackups

• Go to the connect your storage page

• Select "UpCloud" as storage provider and fill in the "Connect your storage" form with the information from step 1.

You'll have to input :

• Key: Access Key described in step 1

• Secret: Secret Key described in step 1

• Region: Bucket location described in step 1

• Bucket: Bucket name described in step 1

• Endpoint: Storage endpoint described in step 1, make sure not to include the bucket name but only the storage (as described in the helper).

• Give your storage a name (usually we like to use the Bucket name) and click on "Save new storage".

Congratulations, you have now connected your UpCloud storage!
